  hello, hello, and welcome to the character sheet thread!!
  
  as previously stated this will be an application-based roleplay, but roles are gonna work a bit differently- there is a character summary and their alias, but aside from those two, you have complete free reign over the character- name, age, gender, you can even tweak parts of the bio and persona as long as they line up with the character blurb! consider it like one big au. (yes, i shamelessly copy-pasted this from the ic, sue me.)
  
  anyways, for character sheets, you have mostly free reign, just make sure to include the basics- name, gender, age, alias, sexuality, appearance, and a good few paragraphs each for the persona and bio. how you format it all is up to you, though!

  personality

  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  
  

  Cassidy is a quiet, intense person, shaped by her upbringing as a weapon under her parents, Lady Vic and Black Mask. Since she had been trained to kill from a young age, she is emotionally distant and finds it difficult to express herself through words, preferring to communicate through action. Cassidy is highly observant and analytical, always reading people and situations carefully before making a move. She notices every shift in a person’s posture, every twitch of a hand.
  Despite her cold exterior, Cassidy carries a deep sense of guilt and responsibility for her past actions. She struggles with her identity, constantly torn between the ruthless assassin her parents wanted her to be and the hero she hopes to become. She can be stoic and difficult to read, but beneath her hardened shell is someone who desperately wants to make up for her past and prove that she can be more than just a living weapon.
  Even though Cassidy Rarely speaks (selective mutism), when she does, her words carry weight. She values loyalty and trust, though it takes her a long time to open up to others. Her journey with the Batfamily is not only about fighting crime but also about healing the psychological scars left by her parents.

  section 1

  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  Cassidy was born into a world where violence was both profession and survival, the product of a cold, calculated partnership between Lady Vic and Roman Sionis, aka Black Mask. Neither of her parents were interested in raising a child out of love. Cassidy was an asset from the moment she was born, bred and molded for a life of ruthlessness and control.
  From the earliest moments of her life, Cassidy was put into an existence defined by brutality. Lady Vic believed in raising Cassidy as an extension of her family’s tradition of assassins. She began training Cassidy as soon as the girl could stand, focusing on physical prowess, agility, and the art of combat. Her mother was strict, distant, and unemotional, drilling Cassidy day in and day out. There were no words of encouragement, no moments of comfort. Only constant reminders that emotions were a weakness and weakness was not tolerated.
  Lady Vic made sure Cassidy learned to kill before she learned to do anything else. Every movement had to be precise, every decision calculated. She drilled the art of reading body language into Cassidy's mind so that she could predict her opponent's actions before they even made them. It wasn’t long before she became a master at understanding movement, gesture, and intentions. This became her language, one she would rely on more than spoken words. Cassidy quickly learned that her mother valued her skills, not her as a person. Her existence was a tool sharpened for deadly work.
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  

  section 2

  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  While Lady Vic focused on Cassidy’s physical skills, Black Mask played his part in shaping her mind. Roman was known for his cruelty and he made sure that Cassidy would understand the power of fear and domination. When she wasn’t under her mother’s harsh training, she was being taught by her father how to control others, through fear, through violence, and through manipulation.
  He would make her go through psychological tests, forcing her to witness or even participate in the interrogation and torture of his enemies. Black Mask treated Cassidy not as a daughter but as a weapon in his arsenal. He taught her that the world ran on power and those who couldn’t claim it were doomed to be crushed beneath it. He showed no affection, only a sadistic pride when she followed his orders perfectly. Roman saw Cassidy as a future heir to his criminal empire, someone who could carry on his legacy and create fear into Gotham’s underworld.
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  

  section 3

  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  Cassidy had no childhood, not in the traditional way. She grew up surrounded by death and violence, never knowing what it was like to be a carefree, happy child. She learned early on to never show fear or weakness in front of her parents or anyone else. Both Lady Vic and Black Mask taught her that emotions were vulnerabilities and Cassidy buried them deep inside herself, locking away any desire for comfort or normalcy. She grew silent, not because she didn’t want to speak, but because her language had become one of body movement and action. Words seemed unnecessary and in her world, they were.
  For years, Cassidy was locked in a brutal cycle, caught between her mother’s cold precision and her father’s cruel domination. She was trained, tested, and pushed beyond her limits, and for a long time, she didn’t question it. She believed this was her purpose, to be the weapon her parents wanted her to be, to continue the legacy of power and fear.
  As Cassidy grew older, something inside her began to turn. The emptiness, the hollow existence she had been molded into began to feel unbearable. She started to recognize the cost of her parents’ ways. The loss of her own identity, the loss of her humanity. She began to see her parents for what they truly were – users, abusers, and manipulators. They didn’t love her. They had never loved her.
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  

  section 4

  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  The final crack was on her sixteenth birthday, when her father attempted to initiate her into his crime syndicate by forcing her to kill an innocent man as a way to show her loyalty. Cassidy hesitated, something Roman had never expected. For the first time, Cassidy disobeyed orders. She refused, standing in silence, keeping her head held high. Roman attacked her in rage, intending to punish her for going against him, but Cassidy fought back with all the years of training and her sharpened mind.
  She escaped that night, disappearing from Gotham’s underworld, leaving behind the life her parents had forced on her. Even though she had broken free physically, Cassidy knew she wasn’t free mentally. Everything she learned, the violence, the trauma still haunted her and she carried the weight of it all like a second skin.
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  

  section 5

  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  Cassidy wandered for months, unsure of her place in the world. She had been raised to be a weapon, not a person, and she struggled to understand who she was outside of her parents' influence. Deep down, she knew she didn’t want to follow in their footsteps. She wanted to be something different, something better.
  That’s when she found herself drawn to Gotham’s vigilantes. Watching the Batfamily from the shadows, she saw what real heroes were like. They weren’t perfect but they fought for something greater than themselves. Cassidy wanted that. She wanted to make up for all the violence she had caused, for the lives she had taken under her parents’ orders.
  It was during this time that she crossed paths with Batman. Sensing the pain and potential in her, Batman took Cassidy under his wing. She became the next Batgirl, taking on the iconic mantle in an attempt to get rid of her violent past. As Batgirl, Cassidy fought crime with determination, going head-to-head with the same criminals her parents were associated with.
  It wasn’t easy at all. Years of training had conditioned her to be a killer, not a protector. She struggled with her instincts, constantly battling the urge to fall back into old habits. The physical and mental barriers were immense, but Cassidy was determined.
  

  
  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  
  
  

  
  

  section 6

  
  

  
  
  
  
  

  Her time as Batgirl didn’t go without its challenges. Cassidy found it difficult to balance the expectations of the Batgirl identity with her own internal struggles. Even though she excelled in combat and crime-fighting, the weight of her past, her trauma, and her emotional barriers made her feel distant from the heroic symbol Batgirl represented. She couldn’t fully take on the role and deep down, she felt like she was running away from her true self by taking on the Batgirl mantle. She couldn't be Batgirl, and not know who she is at the same time – it just didn’t work.
  Batman recognized this internal conflict and allowed her to resign the Batgirl title. He knew she needed to figure out who she was. Fighting was all Cassidy knew though, it had been her whole life. She may have not known who she was, but she knew she didn’t want to give up trying to redeem herself. She took on a new identity, one that felt more aligned with her, Orphan. A name that reflected her severed ties to her past and her parents.
  As Orphan, Cassidy no longer felt the need to be a symbol like Batgirl. Instead, she focused on becoming the best version of herself, making up for her dark past by protecting Gotham’s vulnerable citizens in her own way. Cassidy was trying to figure everything out, but she continues to face both physical and mental barriers. She remains haunted by the sins of her past and strives every day to be the hero Gotham needs, even as she battles herself within. Her journey toward becoming a hero wasn’t just about fighting crime, it was about finding herself. It was about breaking the chains of the worst version of her and proving that she could be more than the weapon her parents had made her be.

  After the death of their parents, Jay and his older brother, Danny, were left to fend for themselves on Gotham's streets. In an effort to make more money for them, Danny started working for the well-known gangster Charles Knight and Jay would often help him by acting as lookout. On Jay's twelfth birthday, his brother gave him a red hoodie as a birthday present. It was a few sizes too big but nonetheless it became Jay's most prized possession. Unfortunately though, Danny was killed shortly after during an attack on Knight by Killer Croc, who, at the time, had set out to become Gotham's most powerful underworld figure and wanted the gangster's seat at the Powers Club, an exclusive Gentlemen's club with ties to the Gotham underworld.
  
  Jay found himself adrift after the death of Danny and Knight until he crossed paths with Charles Knight’s daughter, Natalia. A former street orphan herself, she saw a reflection of her own past in Jay and took him in, raising him like her father had once raised her. Natalia and her lover Anton Knight, the biological son of Charles Knight, became a surrogate family for Jay and for a time he was happy. However, In order to maintain their lifestyle, Anton operated as the costumed criminal known as the Thief of Night and he decided to take Jay under his wing, training him to become his partner in crime. At some point, Anton managed to steal a batsuit and he and Jay, dressed as Robin, began a campaign to discredit Batman's name and reputation until Anton was apprehended by the caped crusader and sent to prison.
  
  With Anton gone, Natalia sought a new way to maintain her life of luxury. She targeted Bruce Wayne, Gotham’s most eligible bachelor, and the two entered into a romantic relationship. Over time, what started as a calculated plot evolved into genuine affection. Bruce and Natalia grew close, and through their bond, Jay formed a connection with Bruce as well, finding in him the positive role model he desperately needed. However, Anton broke out of prison and quickly discovered that Natalia and Jay had moved on. Hurt by their rejection, he swore revenge on them and became the Night-Slayer. Events quickly escalated with Anton capturing Natalia and Jay with the intent of murdering them both. Batman arrived and confronted him but not before Anton managed to fatally stab Natalia. Batman and the Night-Slayer fought and both combatants appeared evenly matched until Jay managed to slip free of his bonds. Assisting the caped crusader, Anton was stopped and taken to the authorities, before being committed to Arkham Asylum.
  
  Following the tragic death of Natalia, Bruce legally adopted Jay and, with Dick's blessing, selected him to become the new Robin. Jay was grieving deeply following his surrogate mother's passing and Bruce feared that, without the proper guidance and discipline, his anger and grief would send him down a dark path. With his new identity as Robin, Jay joined Batman and stopped several criminals including Crazy Quilt, Doctor Fang, Catman, Scarecrow, Mister Freeze, and many others.
  
  On his last mission as Robin, he assisted Batman in defeating Ra's al Ghul and a cadre of other criminals, who were released by Ra's to kill Batman. They tracked him down to an old decrepit windmill where Ra's was housing one of his Lazarus Pits. Approaching the windmill, they used explosive charges to blast away at the foundation, providing them with a quick entrance. Batman and Ra's fought one another but Ra's had immersed himself in the pit while still alive, becoming ten times as strong as normal. With Batman completely outmatched, Jay took drastic action, tackling Ra's and sending both of them plunging into the pit. Batman tried to retrieve Jay but the explosives had greatly weakened the structure of the windmill, and with the building threatening to collapse on top of them, he had little choice but to make his escape.
  
  Batman searched the rubble afterwards but could find no sign of Jay and he was presumed dead. Unbeknownst to Batman, Talia Al Ghul had managed to retrieve Jay before the collapse of the windmill via a secret tunnel. Talia took Jay in and after spending a year in a coma, Jay awoke but the mental damage from the magic of the pit appeared to be extensive and he suffered from amnesia. From muscle memory, Jay remembered how to fight but could remember little else. The only thing he could remember was the image of a red hoodie and its curious importance to him.
  
  With the League of Assassins in disarray following Ra's apparent death a year before, Talia exploited Jay's condition to help her bring the League under her control and he became her chief enforcer, the "Red Hooded Ninja," or simply the "Red Hood". With Jay eliminating any who opposed her, Talia soon established herself as the League's new leader. With his debt to Talia paid, Jay was released from her service and he began travelling in an attempt to piece together his past, only to find himself relentlessly pursued by a splinter faction of the League.
  
  Eventually, Jay found refuge with the Sloan Circus, where, inspired by vague memories of someone from his past whom he couldn’t quite recall, he became an aerialist and trapeze artist known as the "Flying Todd." It was at the circus where Jay met Waldo the Clown, an old friend of Dick Grayson. Waldo’s stories of Dick began to stir Jay’s lost memories and the mention of Dick and Bruce Wayne triggered flashes of his past. Realizing there was much more to his history than he could remember, Jay left the circus to return to Gotham, determined to uncover the truth about his past and his connection to Bruce and Dick. Unfortunately, upon his return, Jay discovered that Batman had gone missing, leaving him with even more questions than answers.

Tim Drake is a lean, mean fighting machine on the cusp of adulthood. He's lithe and flexible, with a fit runner's body that is made for agility and subtle strength. Shirt off, Tim's body is littered with scars from his vigilante lifestyle, perhaps the most prominent being the scar that runs the length of his abdomen from his time spent overseas.

His hair is black and mostly straight, naturally falling into a centre part. When he grows it out, it tends to develop a slight outward curl at the end, though it's rare that he lets his hair get more than a little shaggy. His eyes are an icy blue, and his complexion is nearly translucent, like fine porcelain. The benefit of living in a place like Gotham is that Tim doesn't have to worry too much about frying in the sun, but when he goes anywhere that doesn't have a permanently gloomy atmosphere, he burns in minutes.

In dressing himself as a civilian, Tim swings wildly between skatepark grunge and business casual depending on whether he's on or off the clock. He's got a collection of 90s alt-rock band tees that he rotates through and several pairs of well-loved jeans.

Backstory

Tim grew up in a brownstone rowhouse in Old Gotham. His parents, Janet and Jack Drake, travelled for work, so Tim spent much of his childhood alone. Despite the apparent parental neglect, Tim had a loving relationship with his parents. They often sent postcards while abroad and called home weekly to check in on Tim, and while they were home in Gotham, they spent much of their time doting on their son.


For his ninth birthday, his father bought him an expensive SLR camera and lens kit, which Tim used to his heart's content. Without regular parental supervision, Tim would often find himself on the roof of his rowhouse, taking photos of Batman and Robin whenever they passed through his neighbourhood. His obsession with the Dynamic Duo grew as time progressed, and during the summers, he'd spend most of his nights outside tracking the pair across Gotham.

It was around this time when he connected the dots between The Flying Graysons and Robin when the young vigilante executed a perfect quadruple somersault while in costume. With some careful research, Tim figured out that Richard "Dick" Grayson was Robin! Not long after, Tim correctly guessed that Batman must be the eccentric socialite Bruce Wayne.

He kept his secret knowledge to himself, amusing himself instead by following the vigilantes around Gotham and documenting candid moments between the duo. He watched as the relationship between Bruce and Dick became strained, eventually leading to what Tim could only guess was Robin hanging up his cape after witnessing a few particularly nasty arguments between the two.

Through his lens, he witnessed the rise and fall of the second Robin, the decline in Batman's care and compassion, and the subsequent darkness that fell upon Gotham. It was then that he decided to take matters into his own hands, so he looked up Dick Grayson's address and tracked the former Robin down, intent on persuading Dick to retake the mantle.

Dick... did not take Tim up on the challenge.

Instead, at the tender age of 12-almost-13, Tim marched up to Wayne Manor and formally introduced himself, announcing his intent with references and charts to back up his claims. It did not go well.

Only after Tim proved himself in the field by rescuing Nightwing and Batman from the hands of Two-Face (with Alfred's help) did Batman-Bruce-Wayne take him seriously. His training began in earnest just after his thirteenth birthday.

When Tim was fourteen, his parents were involved in a terrible accident while overseas, killing his mother and putting his father in a coma. The tragic event left Tim essentially without guardianship, but when Bruce found out, he stepped in and opened his home to Tim until his father recovered... or succumbed. As a distraction from the turn of events, Tim travelled to Paris to study under several martial arts masters and spent the better part of a year honing his skills before returning to Gotham when he got the news that his father had woken up.

Tim convinced his father to sell the brownstone in Old Gotham and buy a much more wheelchair-accessible house in Bristol with the ulterior motive of Tim being closer to the Batcave. Throughout Jack's recovery, Tim kept his identity as Robin a secret, but the guilt weighed heavily on Tim. After a particularly close near-miss, Tim was forced to come clean to his father about his secret identity. Jack, worried about his son's well-being, forbade Tim from going out as Robin anymore, and Tim agreed to the conditions without hesitation. He hung up his cape but occasionally broke his promise to Jack when things were especially dire.

Tim was sixteen when his father was murdered in his home by Captain Boomerang. He'd been called out to patrol that night, leaving Jack home alone. A trip of Tim's security system was the first indication that something was wrong. Tim raced home to ensure everything was alright, but when he got there, it was too late. Jack was lying in a pool of blood, lifeless, a sharpened steel boomerang sticking out of his chest.

After this point, a sea-change in Tim occurred. He became serious, determined, and single-minded, a mirror of Batman from all those years ago after the loss of Jason. He threw himself wholly into his work and honed his detective skills into something almost lethal because he wasn't sure he wanted to keep going without it.

For a long year, Tim spiralled into something darker. Tim finally felt something other than grief and anger when he stumbled across documentation of Lazarus Pits and their effects. There was a chance that he could bring his parents back. His journey of self-discovery took him on a globe-trotting adventure of peril and truth. After a near-death experience where he was practically eviscerated, Tim realised the moral and ethical dilemma of raising the dead. It could not be undone.

Upon his return to Gotham at the age of eighteen after spending a year convalescing overseas, Tim rebranded himself as Red Robin. He debuted not as a sidekick but as a hero in his own right.

Personality

If Tim were a weapon, he'd be a spear. He's sharp, focused and extremely agile when solving puzzles and hunting for clues. Not much stands in his way if he sets his mind to it. He'd definitely be a supervillain if he wanted to. Fortunately for the world, he's got his eye on making the world a better place for everyone, even if building a giant space laser would be cool.

Tim is smart. This is an understatement. He sees the world as a series of puzzles to solve, his social interactions as NPC dialogue options which certainly have some interesting outcomes in the real world. He's perhaps not the most socially adept individual, but many people find his awkwardness endearing, which is probably how he managed to score a few girlfriends while in high school.

Tim is kind. He cares about civilians and wants to help. If there is any call to action, Tim will be there! He founded a breakfast club in middle school and frequently centres any of his school projects around social justice issues. He has big ideas and big feelings.
